Tack the stitching to the fabric. You can choose how you want to do this--white thread on the white, a cute button in the 4 hearts in the corners, whatever.<BR/><BR/>Then when you get ready to frame the piece you have an 'undermat' of the printed fabric forming a border between your stitched piece and the frame.<BR/><BR/>I hope that this helps.ann70821https://www.blogger.com/profile/14327066468856496991noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5209526913073154264.post-34888190227177037512009-02-17T07:16:00.000-08:002009-02-17T07:16:00.000-08:00I like Momofanyblesings idea.

It is hard to tell from your picture but it looks like there is enough fabric in the shot. I can't tell where the edge is.
